Psychic worked on Scraggy...they still don't take advantages and disadvantages into consideration.They threw those down the toilet so that they don't have to complicate the pkmn's movepools...how lame>.>

I think the reason Psychic worked on Scraggy was because at that moment it was working as an support move and not as an damaging move. Also unlike the others, Scraggy didn't show any reaction to the effects of Psychic. It was like it didn't affect him at all.

Doesn't sound like that good of an episode to me. The way they are playing it, sounds like this Virgil guy is the one to beat Ash or they wouldn't being doing this much with the guy.
Why do they keep knocking poor Ash in the water? Fan service?

Seriously what the episode before talking(I know you probably won't), I wasn't expecting much either but I passed a good part of the episode laughing, so even though I wouldn't like this in the middle of the league the episode was fun and I can't hate on something like that...

No its called a gag, same thing he had with Jun back in DP.

I mentioned that also but seriously don't make a big deal out of it, it was for plot convinience, they won't have him take a psichich attack in an actual battle for sure, we see type advatange in effect in almost every battle yeah they don't take that into consideration...

----------------------------------------------

Its freaking frustrating to read you people post, we know you won't like the episode, they can do anything with it, you won't like it we know it, so why come and once again say you dont like something when we know you won't give it a chance, we come into an episod thread we see people names and we already know the opinion will be ALWAYS the same.

I wasn't acting like my opinion was a fact cool it, I just think it doesn't sound good even if its not meant to be taken seriously. Its just some thing to show interactions between rivals over Axew being lost its just so. Well whatever, its great to see some didn't think it was horrible as they thought guess I'll have to wait and actually see it before saying any thing.

So anyway, we got our Amoongus revealed, so Klinklang left, Klinklang wil probably be the one belonging to Kotetsu then.

Amoongus and that are for January.

I saw the pictures and it looks interesting to me. There looked to be a decent amount of interactions between characters and even Pokemon. It was nice seeing everyone off doing their own little thing and how most of it ended up being connected with each other(Besides Stephan and his sauna).

Bianca and Virgil got pretty close to each other...I wonder who will ship them now.

Kotetsu needs to get a instant tent, no hard work, it just magically appears. But this is Kotetsu, he must not be aware this is Anime.

I would have liked to actually seen the battles from Ash, but oh well, at least Scraggy got a win and now we know where everything is, Ash vs Stephan is top 16, Ash vs Kotetsu is top 8, no more confusion now.

I love the end freeze frames, I wouldn't have thought they'd do it for those other characters but it looks nice to me, some are "meh" to me, but Dino is of course the best thing there, doesn't even want to show his face because even his back is the most awesome thing there...it'll be a crime if he doesn't win with his awesome Darumaka. Katherina looked nice too. The kid from today's episode looked like he was trying to be champ already.

From the top, left side:
1. ????
2. ????
3. Flora (Lost to Cilan in the First round of the Clubsplosion. Has Gothorita and Foongus)
4. Kenton (Lost in the first round of the Junior WT against Manning. Used Golett)
5. Antonio (Top 8 in the first Club Battle, lost using a Cottonee vs Dino's Tranquill)
6. Virgil

Middle:
1. ???
2. Dino(Top 4 in the first Club Battle, Used Deerling, Tranquill, and Darumaka- the last one lost os Ash's Palpitoad)

Right Side
1. Unknown
2. Unknown
3. Katharine (Has Gothita, Darumaka, Deerling and Mandybuzz)
4. Ramone (Lost in the First round of the Junior WT against Dawn. Has a Stoutland and a Tranquill)
5. Manning(Top 8 in the Junior WT, defeated Kenton's with his Heatmor. Lost to Trip's Serperior)
6. Kotetsu

I know he has a real name, but in my Headcanon Baldy McBaldykins was the fat kid that was always picked on at school. He decided to go on a Pokemon Journey to show them. He'll show them all. He'll become the League Champion and have the lot of them exiled because apparently winning a Tournament gives you the power to make those kinds of decisions!

Oh so they did skip two whole rounds. Gross. I was hoping they wouldn't do that. Didn't make sense to me. It was okay. At least the rival interactions were great, which is what I was looking for. No Oshawott evolution, oh well. We could have done without this Axew filler stuff and had seen Ash's Top 64 and Top 32 matches completely.

Well atleast Scraggy vs Darumakka was handled better then Snorlax vs Grumpig not that it was hard.

They only skiped one round I think and the other half of the Scraggy battle.

I agree I would have liked to see the battles instead but like I said I really cant hate on the episode XD, I was laughing all the time.

Oh look, it was a filler after all. Just like I predicted a hundred times. And no, I don't care if they revealed the match ups for the next rounds; a few seconds of confirmed information about future events didn't justify this entire episode. Like, don't even get me started on Axew. I knew he would wind up causing trouble since that's what we were told from the start, but his little pity party made things worse. Yeah, as if I was really going to cry just because Axew did. Please. It's his own damn fault for getting lost, but instead of punishing him for acting like a child and causing mayhem, he gets a warm welcome from Iris and the others and we're expected to feel bad for him? No sir, I ain't buying it. If Axew isn't going to mature, then I've given up on him. I am just fed up. Oh, and I don't know why people are disappointed with Oshawott. I can't at some people actually thinking he'd evolve. Like what the heck? When was it ever implied that he'd evolve here, if at all? And what's with people implying that he was out of place here yet Cilan's little detective stunt wasn't? Okay, maybe out of place doesn't accurately describe his gimmick, but it was still unnecessary given that we had what is essentially a real detective and a rescue team on the case: Virgil and his Pokemon, who actually make a living by helping Pokemon. I'm giving this episode a 0 for the day. It was the worst BW episode ever, and definitely in the top five worst episodes of the anime for me, period. I am not playing games with this anime anymore.

Proud claimer of Cyndaquil and Ezio Auditore from Assassin's Creed !!
Also proud claimer of Assassin's Creed 2 the game!!
Just became the proud claimer of the Marvel's Agent's of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show ^_^!!!

I find it ironic how last league everyone was complaining between the two-second battle between Snorlax and Grumpig and now we didn't even see the battle lol. I am personally disappointed with this league.

So at first I was confused to see Kotetsu winning a match since he'd already won his second round match, but from reading the bulbapedia article they're apparently on the fourth round? So the entire remainder of the second round happened off camera and the third round was the one that happened in the brief montage?

Look, I know it's kind of obvious to the audience that rivals are probably only going to lose to other rivals, but that's not an excuse to just brush those battles aside. I thought the first round was fine, the COTDs looked distinct and battled well. But through this episode I feel I've lost my bearings on how well everyone is doing. Even if the results of these battles are predictable, they can still be used for character development or at least showing off some Pokemon who have been neglected.

The episode itself was alright, nice to see the pokemon interacting and a couple funny moments, but if they are pressed for time and seem to be rushing things then I don't see the need for stuff like this. Hopefully the late-round battling makes up for the slower-paced episode.

I've been trying to avoid spoilers, but I have a weird feeling Dino is going to win the tournament...
